Yes, rats usually like to hide when they die. So you can’t find them and they torture you even more than when they were alive. ---

you could ask your town mayor to unleash large rat eating snakes…and then to fix the snake problem, you could let loose a bunch of snake eating bears ---

Well I thought you didn’t let your dogs in your basement??? We do the same, because we have a mouse problem (or used to, I haven’t seen any recently). We have a dog, but hes afraid of the basement (weirdest thing I ever saw, he won’t even touch the first step), so we didn’t have to worry about him. ---

i cant imagine having rats infest my house over roaches. they’re bad enough, but having something furry with teeth would be a nightmare. ---

I prefer mice over roaches. I saw this thing on the discovery channel about a girl who has a roach climb into her ear why she slept and it died in there and she couldn’t understand the immense pain in her ear, the doctor looked and saw something in there. He pulled out a roach. That completely skeeved me out. Roaches are nasty and disease carrying, but even worse they are smaller, and can climb walls and fly when they want to. And they don’t die unless you smash them to pieces. And they can survive for over a week without a head because they have a brain in their butt to, they eventually die of starvation or thirst. ---

Oh ok. As I stated, I don’t have that problem with my dog. He won’t even go down if you coax him with food. He freaks out and gets kind of mean, which is weird for him. I don’t get it, but he will NOT go anywhere near our basement. You can’t even pull him down there. It’s impossible to get him down there. ---
